Update: 10-31-18: I should stress any post from here to early-ish 2011 is completely different from how I am nowadays. A lot of this showcase was me trying to find a style, or at least get myself better at building in general. So time has not been nice to me and if you would like a more accurate representation of my building style gradually getting more and more refined nowadays, then go to page 34. I will leave the older posts here, however, most of my posts for a few pages are pretty much me doing some sparingly used cheaty methods, refusing to improve some bots, sounding completely bafflingly strange or just cringeworthy, so be warned. They do tell how far I improved from the last eight years on GTM, so that's one thing I suppose. Everything else in this is completely unchanged aside from this edit.

ORIGINAL POST:
------------------------------------------------------
So I decided to make a showcase so my first bot is an antweight Mini-Macer.

Nope.

You stacked 2 batteries, I take it ?

Anyways, pretty good for a newcomer.

RedAce · « **Reply #8 on:** October 16, 2010, 04:55:23 AM »

Yeah Naryar here's the thing, If I did stack a battery like that, I'd be overweight. Any way I built a Creepy Crawler (sorta). It's Name is Rampage, a MiddleWeight.

A single nifty is enough, rather than spamming pinks.

Also make the chassis smaller.

Everyone uses Ianh0's AW chassis now.

G.K. · « **Reply #11 on:** October 16, 2010, 05:23:10 AM »

Because it is the best chassis.

Ian made another chassis that's better. :P

G.K. · « **Reply #13 on:** October 16, 2010, 05:30:50 AM »

I know, but Ian's chassis in general are what I am referring to.

How did you know? This next bot is Snowball, Another Antweight .

Naryar · « **Reply #15 on:** October 16, 2010, 06:07:06 AM »

I fixed your picture.

Looking good, if generic.

Pwnator · « **Reply #16 on:** October 16, 2010, 06:08:01 AM »

That is the ODDEST stack I have ever seen in stock. O_O

Naryar · « **Reply #17 on:** October 16, 2010, 06:08:41 AM »

*did not noticed the stack*

owait... is this even possible without BFE/AAM ?

Pwnator · « **Reply #18 on:** October 16, 2010, 06:10:27 AM »

I once stacked a CB into a large air tank before, but this is something I never thought of. XD

Gazea2 · « **Reply #19 on:** October 16, 2010, 06:24:16 AM »

Is the weird stack the RAD in the nifty?

Other than that, you're looking good. You kno what weapons, wheels and batteries to use. are you using DSA or plastic?
